Stranger Still

This week we explore some boring super powers that humans already have. There is a small section of our population that are genetically superior to boring people like me. They might have unbreakable bones. They might have an autobiographical memory. Doesn’t matter, they’re very interesting and we’re gonna talk about them!

There’s no time like the present to support us on Patreon!

Every week on Stranger Still, we take the questions you’ve never questioned to ask and try to answer them. We want to make you laugh and teach you something interesting at the same time. So join us every Wednesday for another fun filled learn!

If you’ve got a strange question you want answered ask us on Facebook, tweet us @StrangerStill, or drop us an email at [email protected]. To find other great podcasts, head on over to FlyingMachine.Network
